If I got an board with ES1 now, do you know if there will be Vivado versions in the future which do not support the engineering samples anymore and will only work with production silicon?
I remember this wasn't the case with the old Zynq 7000, but you also didn't need to get a stupid license from Xilinx to be able to build for ES at all. If I can't use my board (which I just got a week ago) with newer versions of Vivado, that would be a big let-down.
